Is this common?

I just hatched a tremper albino that has white stipes instead of yellow ones is this normal or is it a mutation. It is a male that was incubated around 87-90 degrees because of my incubator it did have a flucuation in temps. I know these aren't the best pictures but the only ones I have they were taken when he hatched

Thank you I have only been breeding for the past 3 years and never saw that before, I have hatched out babies in 35 days before that didn't do that but it hatched in 33 days so that must be it. will the yellow come as it ages?

Sorry to hear that. He must have just decide to hatch a little too early. Preemies that don't have fully developed pigment usually end up normal looking after a few sheds.
